The Jim & Tabitha Furyk Foundation didn’t let the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic stop its efforts to give back to those in need this holiday season.
The ninth annual Hope for the Holidays event looked a little different with masks and social distancing, but, the end result was the same. The foundation was able to secure, pack and deliver more than 5,000 bags of nonperishable food and holiday treats to families in need around the greater Jacksonville area, setting a new record for the annual event.
“The event began as a way for children to actively help others in their community and it was important for us to continue that tradition,” said Tabitha Furyk, wife of PGA TOUR player Jim Furyk and head of the foundation. “Instead of having one night where the community could come together to help those in need, we created a week-long schedule with individual slots for packing in order to provide a safe and enjoyable experience.”
